Someone is corrupting science, and it isn't Conservatives

Wait. This can't be. Doesn't everyone know it is the right who politicizes science? What is the normally reliably liberal New Yorker doing publishing this stuff about the left corrupting science? Someone call the Diversity Police. These people must be silenced:

It has to do with a point that the social psychologist Jon Haidt (himself a liberal and an atheist) made a few years back, regarding the overwhelming presence of liberals in his field, and how that lack of diversity potentially harms the field. Haidt got lots of pushback from within the social psychology community, but there have been studies showing that he was right.
